Every once in awhile comething arises in the secular, scientific community which we feel needs to be shared. This article appearing in The Washington Post proposes that genetic scientists were surprised to discover that all the races on the planet are linked to just three common groups. They had expected to find dozens of distinct groups, but instead have found that they can all be traced to a common heritage they identify as African, Eurasion, and East Asian.

Allow us to congratulate them on their findings which seems to confirm what God's Word established long before the word "genetics" was even invented, that all mankind is descended from three groups we know as the sons of Noah: Ham, Shem, and Japheth, through whom all the world's people groups trace their common heritage. Sometimes science is not just fun, but downright funny.

The Church of England will tomorrow officially apologise to Charles Darwin for misunderstanding his theory of evolution.

In a bizarre step, the Church will address its contrition directly to the Victorian scientist himself, even though he died 126 years ago. But the move was greeted with derision last night, with Darwin"s great-great-grandson dismissing it as " ˜pointless" and other critics branding it " ˜ludicrous".

This issue again resurfacing in the USA and elsewhere is not merely one of an anti-Judeo-Christian religious bias, but reflects a gross ignorance in the unscientific approach to science being propagated in the media. This anti-intelligent design crusade has been pursued not only by non scientists such as Ronald Reagan's son, (a failed ballet dancer who underwent a metamorphosis becoming a self-pronounced expert on world affairs, scientific affairs, and in any other field imaginable because of his paternal surname), and the ACLU (which since its defense of Nazis is neither American, Civil, nor Libertarian) but also by scientists who ought to know better. The central issue from a scientific perspective is not faith (as belief in Darwinism requires faith because it is theory not a fact), but quantitative scientific reality.

OTTAWA - The Quebec Ministry of Education has told unlicensed Christian evangelical schools that they must teach Darwin's theory of evolution and sex education or close their doors after a school board in the Outaouais region complained the provincial curriculum was not being followed.
